Boom! Studios and The Jim Henson Company have announced the first ever graphic novel adaptation of A.C.H. Smith’s beloved novelization of the 1986 fantasy classic Labyrinth is set for release in September 2024 courtesy of writer Kyla Vanderklugt (Demon in the Wood) and artist Giorgio Spalletta (Alice Never After).
“Labyrinth is such a unique fantasy that holds a special place in the hearts of so many,” said writer Kyla Vanderklugt. “It was a privilege to adapt the film into graphic novel form, and Giorgio’s art is perfect to bring the story to mesmerizing life. I can’t wait for readers to fall in love with the world and characters all over again, just as I did.”
“Labyrinth is one of the films that most frightened and most fascinated me as a child,” added artist Giorgio Spalletta. “I am overjoyed to interpret that universe that has so influenced my imagination by getting to explore every corner of it.”
